Commemorates the Soldier Settlement area of "Chocolyn Estate" that was established in 1920.

The Chocolyn Estate was originally subdivided and offered at public auction in December 1909.

Many of the blocks remained vacant until 1920 when the Closer Settlement Board purchased the land. It was then subdivided into 26 blocks and offered to ex-servicemen. There were 76 applications from across Victoria and as ex-servicemen began to settle in the area, the community of Chocolyn grew.

In 1928 the school was enlarged and in 1931 a community church hall was built. Sports teams, dances, scouts, guides, church activities and school functions were the foundation of a strong community.
